Abstract excerpt
Using apoE phenotyping by immunoblotting and apoE genotyping we identified four heterozygous carriers of a rare apolipoprotein (apo) E2 variant, apoE2 (Arg136 --> Cys). ApoE2 (Arg136 --> Cys) was not distinct from apoE2 (Arg158 --> Cys) by phenotyping, but produced a unique pattern of bands on CfoI restriction typing of a 244 bp apoE gene fragment. Two of the four apoE2 (Arg136 --> Cys)/3 heterozygotes had...
